Analytics-Web

What is it?#

Web Analytics incorporated on web pages in conjunction with the Resul Smart Link can be a valuable source of behavioural information such as:-

  • Traffic source
  • Pages viewed
  • Time spent per page
  • User interaction at each page
Integration with web analytics enables Resul to provide a broad range of analytics used across a number of modules such as communication analytics, Audience 360, and the Dashboard. This information is also utilized to refine communications, web pages, and customer journeys.
